I have Bitter Blue St. Augustine under Oak trees (partial shade) which is yellowing. I have applied Ironite and a fungicide and none have worked. WHat could be the problem? I have a serious problem with moles and grubs, would this be a contributing factor? THank you for your time.

Grubs will cause root damage and reduce the turf’s ability to suck up water, nutrients,etc and cause the symptoms you describe.

Thank you for the help. Would you reccomend Diazinon or any typical insecticide?
